APPLYING FOR A MAP PLOT

Pertinent Threads/Wiki :-

To protect the fairness of our game, please make all requests for alteration to the map publicly. The Mapmaker will not make changes based on IRC, PM, Skype or any other private or offsite conversations. The Mapmaker cannot and will not accept requests forwarded anywhere other than official public map threads.

COLONIES & CUSTOM ALTERATIONS

All applications to expand one’s map spot, either territorial annexation or colonial establishments, need to support them through this application process. For colonial applications a link to the thread/s that establish the background and general out-of-character effort of the colony also need to be submitted. If the alteration affects other nations/players, for example shared borders or abrupt proximity, then you must open a discussion or somehow get expressed approval for the map alteration from the affected player(s).

Name of Colony :-
Name of Primary Country :-
Established History :-

INACTIVITY & DISCLAIMER


Role-play activity will prevent deletion from the map, 60 days being the minimum for this map, though an announcement of departure in the Absence Thread will excuse a drop off of activity. The Mapmaker & Administration can remove, edit, add, or deny changes to the map based on existing rules or past lessons learned - clarification on the reasoning of these exceptional decisions can and will be given upon reasonable inquiry.

Can my request for G4 carry over to here?

There is no such spot. Consult the updated map. Even VB16 didn't have a G4, so I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to claim.

A much older map points to the current location of Couerleon to be the one he's after, at least the northern portion.

Why was my northern sea access removed? Restore it please. It's also needed for RP with Ivernia and Saaremaa.

Also, I never approved that Ujorszag claim either. Can I please not be altered without my consent?

Kyiv requested it and then there were two weeks where you didn't say anything regarding it. If you want to talk that over with Kyiv then by all means do, but his request got priority considering your claims already span as far as they do. I understand where you're coming from with your RP potential with those two players, but if it comes down to claim versus claim and no compromise is met: the Kyiv claim wins out on sheer pixel fairness and priority. I'd reckon though that you two will figure something out.
[MENTION=1717]Ostria[/MENTION] 's request:


Also, I never approved that Ujorszag claim either. Can I please not be altered without my consent?

Again, I gotta say tough dookie:




Granted we didn't @mention you, so you could have reasonably ignored it, but this thread and the discussion regarding his mapspot kind of sat there with him being very flexible concerning his claim. In the end his new, small, landlocked, and engaged in an active RP that mentions those borders nation received priority over the much larger claim.

---

So I'm going to open a thread that @mentions EE, Uj, and Ostria so the map resolution can be discussed.

I replied here:

There was never any reply. Also the original request was accepted by Cidonia (as the areas involved were taken from his spot), and there was no objection to it, so suddenly reverting the changes without my consent is not something I am approving of. Same for Újország, for days Davy wanted to organize a conference in Steam or Skype to discuss map spots, but it never materialized during a time I was awake. So again, I do not approve of unapproved changes.

In my book both claims have to have my consent in one way or another, and you can't simply change these things without involving me or because you think other things are "fairer" when there were promises of discussion with me which where not lived up to and when in both cases RP of mine is directly involved. In fact, for example, my entire drill RP participation is now potentially ruined because you decided to go ahead with accepting a request without my approval, as I now don't even border the area the RP is about. After the voiding of Ionia already voided my first RP involvement, I really don't see why I should accept a second voiding of a RP I am involved in. When Cidonia sniped the area he is in, @ and me already had to forgo the ideas of tribal crossborder RP we had, and these RP ideas could somehow be salvaged with the northern sea access, similar to planned cooperation with Ivernia. So in both cases, this challenges basic assumptions about the nation that I am not comfortable with.

To sum it up, my original position stand I don't accept these claims in their current form.

Apologies for missing that, it had turned in to a long thread. I still think Kyiv would have priority though, from a mapmaker position, but there's a thread to discuss that here:

Yeah it's a shame that the stars never aligned to have you guys discuss the Uj claim. I'm not sure which promises or discussions were not lived up to, but just looking at the claims themselves: here's a new player that wants to take the plunge of playing a landlocked nation, compared to a veteran player who has territory that spans an entire continent with ocean access on one side and long sea access down on another side (then west coast Gallo-Germania access up until the Ostria change), you certainly needed to be consulted more - and we have timed to do that as the entire RP is still in its early stages, so look at the same linked thread above.
